djluster Pillar of the Community United States 1327 Posts	Posted 01/14/2006 2:28 pm I was just wondering does anyone collect us mint die sets. I bought two of them back in 1999 when they first starting selling them thought they would be neat to have a few to show people. I don't know if many people collect them or not.

crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 01/14/2006 2:41 pm I bought the Indiana Statehood Quarter die but was very disappointed when I found out the mint completely destroys the image. It is a neat keepsake but don't see much value in having any more unless I could get my paws on some of the old classic dies! Those would be KEEPERS! (If the mint left something you could make out!)

I think this was a much better practice. Once they started obliterating the image, I think interest waned somewhat. Report this Post to the Staff
